How can I treat blackheads after a rhinoplasty?

Marlex
I'm three weeks post op, everything seems to be going just great! However, I have a lot of nasty and persistent blackheads on my nose. It looks real awful. I've tried gentle cleansers, astringents, you know name it, I've tried it. How long do I have to wait until I am able to fully get rid of these pesky blackheads? Also, what would be the least traumatic method of getting rid of the blackheads? A facial? A blackhead extractor? My finger nails? Thank you all in advanced!
